The Scene

Justin Timberlake is now reportedly set to mount a campaign to convince Academy Awards bosses he is worthy of a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination at next year's ceremony (11) - and Lance Bass is adamant he deserves it.

He tells PerezHilton.com, "Of course (he deserves an Oscar nomination)! Justin did an amazing job in the movie. He was incredible. I think the movie itself should be nominated for sure as well. I mean, why not?...

"When I saw the film, it just blew me away. And he blew me away. His portrayal of Sean was just amazing."
